Hi Regiment, I am guessing from last time not too many people still yet...

https://www.modelboatmayhem.co.uk/forum/index.php/topic,68105.0.html (https://www.modelboatmayhem.co.uk/forum/index.php/topic,68105.0.html)

Also, I looked at is myself and noticed...

"Includes 43” TV with 48 month interest free loan"

...I have been looking at alternatives to TV recently as very dissapointed with BBC these days compared to being a staunch supporter of licence fees a couple of years ago.  But still the inclusion of that statement for a loan outright alarms me a little bit but to be fair they make that statement from the start rather than hidden in small-print!

...I guess it is down to what you want to watch and where to get it from:  I personally would never take out an openly advertised "loan" for a TV.  But I guess millions of younger folk wouldn't think twice.

Can't understand why the great unwashed have to pay twice and for the 'Specialist' programmes three times?


  1. The Bu****** broadcasting company Tax.


  2. Cable charge.


  3. Football etc. extra charge.


  Regards  Ian.

I don't understand this.

Cable & Sky arguably charge for their programming that isn't on Freeview/Freesat and simply include the programming that is on Freeview / Freesat as a courtesy / licencing requirement.

I don't watch premium football (or any other) & I don't pay for it as an add on to anything.
